Depends on the reason for the forum ban, I'd say, Fiverr's ToS are valid for both main site and forum, and some forum rules may overlap with ToS, too.

If someone tries hard enough to get "sanctions" on the forum, I think they might have a chance at succeeding in getting banned on the main site, even though it's probably a rare occurrence, or may not have actually happened yet .

Hopefully, though, OP has just a theoretical interest in this question and doesn't plan on trying to find out through major ToS violations.

There was one time in February this year when someone sent very offensive messages to some forum members and there was a thread about it. I'm sure the user's account got banned/closed on the main site as well as the forum.

Also someone said (I think when it was on the old version of the forum) that something they did on the forum (maybe that got a warning?) affected them on the main site.

It seems rare though. Most of the time (ie. when it's not very serious) it won't really affect it (or at least we don't know that it's affected the main account).

Though the forum and the main site are both using the Fiverr . com, if you open tabs too fast on Fiverr/the Fiverr forum it does seem like they both could be affected (eg. they both could get the "IP address temporarily blocked" type message).

So you have more than one account?

You mean if you have a sanction on your forum account and if it applies to your main account? Well, no...... But what in heaven's name did you do to get a sanction in the forum.

Perhaps the OP has plans to misbehave here and wants to make sure it will not affect his Fiverr seller account.🤣

Well clearly I misunderstood his question :)) That "main account" thing threw me off.

If we think about it, a person misbehaving on the forum will most likely misbehave on Fiverr as well. So, while the shenanigans from the forum won't affect their Fiverr journey, the chances of them screwing things up on Fiverr as well are very high.
